Main characters: Sam and Mason Side characters: Logan (somewhat of a main character too) Other side characters: Heather and Nate
Mason * is a prequel to FCHigh from Mason's POV. Some prefer to read this before FCHigh, but I wrote Mason later in the series. It was intended to give readers more of a background to understand Mason. Because of this reason, Mason can be read whenever the reader pleases. Fallen Crest High is the preferred first book for new readers to read the Fallen Crest series.
1. Fallen Crest High < -- intended to be new reader's introduction to the Fallen Crest series. Mason was NOT intended to be new reader's introduction.
Start of the Crew Series: This is the beginning of a brand new series.
10. Crew (Crew Series 1) Main characters: Bren (Channing's sister) and Cross Other main/side characters: Jordan and Zellman Side characters: Channing and Heather
11. The Boy I Grew Up With ** (Main characters: Heather and Channing) Written same timeframe as Crew, but two separate books and plotlines.)
13. Rich Prick ** (written as a complete standalone) Main characters: Blaise and Aspen Aspen makes a cameo in Crew Princess, is the sister of Nate from Fallen Crest Series Blaise is introduced in Crew Princess, half-brother to Cross from Crew. Nate's sister is referenced one time in Fallen Crest, that she exists and something happened to her.
14. Kess can be read here. (It's written as a short story standalone in this world, but can be read at any time.)
21. Frisco ** This is included only because of the proximity to Fallen Crest and Roussou. A few cameos happen when the Red Demons make a trip to Fallen Crest. Totally new characters, a new charter for the Red Demons.
22. My Anti-Hero ** (written as a standalone. Brett Broudou was a character in Fallen Crest Family and Fallen Crest Public. This is his book when he is an adult. Billie (Willow) is a brand new character. Can be read and is intended to be read as a standalone.)
23. Kade (book 9 in the Fallen Crest Series, but falls in timeline here) This is the last book for the Fallen Crest universe. Written primarily from Mason's POV.
MORE EXPLANATIONS:
** if a book has these by it, that means it was written so it could be read as a standalone. I do this so that new readers are not overwhelmed with the amount of books they might have to read in order to catch up. They don't. They can read that one book, and if they enjoy it, they can go through and read the rest.
The Crew Series is the start of a new series. It does come after the Fallen Crest books are done, but in essence, it's its own universe. The two characters in The Crew Series that appear in Fallen Crest are Heather and Channing. Bren and all the other main characters do not appear in the Fallen Crest books.
The Boy I Grew Up With was written as a standalone. The order where it falls is put above, but new readers can go read TBIGUW by itself. If they enjoyed it, they can start at the very beginning with Fallen Crest High or move onto the Crew Series. It's up to them.
